Limiting it to the ranking of the users here should do the trick to prevent some of the possible scams. Possibly with merit requirement to make sure that the user is active and participating in the forum. I'm thinking of the problems like misclicks towards the link and could contain malicious contents or something.

OP talks about in-forum links only wherein no links that would redirect outside the forum, so there is no possibility that people would just be able to insert links that have malicious content into it, unless it redirects the user to a thread here that contains that link to a malicious website.

1. If this proposed personal hyperlink will be embedded in the avatar image, I believe it will be in competition with the signature one is promoting.

This is about the text under the avatar, not about embedding the link into the avatar itself. These are two different things.

Noted! I have gotten the clear message. I thought you were saying about embedding a link in the avatar image.
If it is about the text under the avatar it's cool. However, it's like Theymos is unwilling to incorporate anything about links in the current software. The reason could be that the new software is fast approaching.
But, in order to avoid abuse, he could make it such that a certain token and privilege be attached to it such as copper membership.

I like how Google can't find for your post

Ontopic: I don't think more links will make the forum better.

I apologize in advance if this topic has already been discussed.

Recently, I began to wonder why not make a hyperlink under the avatar? Everyone has the option to insert a hyperlink in their signature or profile, so why not do something similar under the avatar as well?

This could be a hyperlink for internal forum projects. After all, many users who wear an advertising signature have their own projects. This hyperlink under the avatar could be used to advertise your project (the link will lead to an ANN topic), a third-party thread that the user supports most often, an event on the forum, be it an auction, a drawing of a collectible, a lottery, a giveaway, or the same provision of some services (again with a link to the ANN topic).

All this can be implemented at the moment in the profile, in the Website tab, but it will look much more effective under the avatar.

I wonder if there is such a possibility to implement such a hyperlink? Or maybe theymos have already commented on a similar request? It would be interesting to get acquainted. Thanks.

I like this idea as a replacement for signatures.  I'm not sure about in addition to...  One can only have so much advertising constantly bombarding them.  As a replacement though, I think it's a great idea.  Besides removing the endless duplicated signatures we've all either hidden or grown accustomed to ignoring, it would also be a step towards bringing advertising in-house, as I believe it would be easier for the forum to manage user displayed advertisements with this setup.  It would also be a boon to bitcointalk forum projects, which is badly needed.
